About the workshop:
Wikis and blogs, which are sometimes collectively called ‘social software’,
are spreading rapidly throughout today’s organisations in many ways. Education is one area that is particularly suited to using such collaborative software, notable in the trend of many software development companies targeting the area.
However, getting started can be difficult due to the initial setup of social software often being a blank canvas. This workshop will work through some of the issues that arise in setting up social software tools and assist you in using them to achieve ultimate benefit for your organisation.
This workshop will address the following topics:
>>Using social software to aid learning and teaching
>>Realising the cultural changes required for working with social software, and outlining the rules and guidelines that can help
>>Understanding the cultural and behavioral changes that emerge from collaborative work methods
>>Identifying the challenges in adoption
